The problem is your sub floor
Not the pergo
-
LOL what a moron, it's odviously bowing up, because it has nowhere to expand at the edges. Only rich people are pergo haters.
-
Rookie mistake, he didn't leave room for expansion around the perimeter! I love pergo.
-
wth....nothing wrong with this kind of flooring at all.....but some thing wrong with the guy who did a crappy job maybe ????
-
THE FLOOR WAS OBVIOUSLY INSTALLED INCORRECTLY AND THIS GUY IS TRYING TO MAKE AN ISSUE OUT OF IT, PROBABLY HAS AN ULTERIOR MOTIVE, AS HE MOST LIKELY INSTALLS NAIL-IN FLOORING AND WANTS TO BUM-RAP THIS STUFF SO HE CAN HAVE AN EXCUSE TO OVER-CHARGE CUSTOMERS, FOR 'HIS' STYLE OF FLOORING, WHERE 'HE" HAS TO DO IT, NOT JOE AVERAGE GUY, WHO CAN, WITH A LITTLE EFFORT, ENSTAL CORRECTLY, A BEAUTIFUL PERGO TYPE FLOOR ALMOST ANYWHERE..

The material expands! You are supposed to leave some lee-way (a "floating floor") so that it does not push up like that. This is an installation issue; in fact Pergo is an extremely high quality residential laminate floor choice.
-
Maybe he didnt aclimate the floors.. If you don't it's a big chance the floor will expand because of heat, and then this will happen..
-
Mine doesn't do that. It looks great.

This most likely an uneven subfloor, or the flooring was installed to tightly, didn't leave the required gap at the edges for flex, so now instead of flex you have bow.
I've installed pergo in both my homes and the home my youngest son purchased. Wonder if this guy knows my neighbor. He installed pergo after seeing the results at our house. After he finished he asked me to come take a look at a problem with the floor. It was like this video. He had installed the flooring on top of the old carpet foam padding instead of removing the foam and installing the proper padding. This is an installation issue, not a product issue. HEY EINSTEIN, THE FLOOR FLOATS!

This is not "the problem with pergo flooring". This is ONE problem from this ONE paticular floor that looks like it was not installed correctly. It's like picking the ugly duckling out of a the flock and ignorantly proclaiming that THIS HERE IS the PROBLEM with all ducks!! ...stupid
